I've never thought to ask, but why the fuck is mortal kombat spelled with a "K"

I think, no I know Boon addressed this once. or at least someone
did. Actually it was in one of the MKast's. Can't remember which
one is was but I do remember them saying it was completely by
accident or something like that. It was spelled with a C, but some-
one on the Mk team wrote with a K and they just ran with it. Gah I
wish I knew which MKast it was so I can determine whether or not
I'm way off base here lol. But yeah, that's what I remember from it.
oh. well, that's cool I guess (even though it makes no real sense)


I guess "MORTAL KOMBAT" looks better than "MORTAL COMBAT"

Kombat looks much more agressive than spelled with a boring old C.

Yeah, the word "Combat" sucks, but "Kombat"...

That one change makes it all the better.

I believe the KKK had nuthing to do with it, like some assumed. It's like a lingo, or a style when its (K)ombat, and not (C)ombat.

I wondered that too once. I never really thought too much about it though. lol. And now it just seems stupid and WAY off course if you say "Mortal Combat." Just looks weird and wrong. "Kombat" just has an edginess too it. "K" sharp letter, "C" curvy and whatnot. Lol.

Boon was drunk one day while working and mispelled Combat with a K. Sadly to say, this was all I could come up for to answer your question.

The letter "K" is known for it's highly aggressive behavior toward the letter "C". HAHA! I'm a worthless whore.

I can bet anything that there's a bunch of ppl out there who still think 'combat' is written with a 'k' simply because of MK...
